Quick report

Toured White Pass backcountry and skied off of Hogsback Mountain on E, NE, and N aspects. Near ridgeline on E and NE aspects at about 6700ft it was wind scoured with powder below that. Wind slabs seemed to be healing and weren't very reactive. N facing terrain was powdery the whole way through. Hand pits showed the new snow starting to bond with the older snow, and had not formed into a slab. Overall seemed very stable. We did not do a formal pit. Photo shows some of the wind scouring near ridgeline.
